Optimize code with predefined variables with same prefix - arduino

Question

I'm well on my way on learning coding for Arduino.
For the following case I Googled my ass off, but can't find any helpful answer.
So, asking here. Maybe you can help me with some terminology to Google, or direct links where this is elaborated.
I want to compress the following code. The predefined colors have to be as they are.
All variables have the same prefix, namely COLOR_. Is there any way to compress the part that is in the setup?
See following link.
// Define the colors of remote control in RGB values
// R G B
#define COLOR_0 { 0, 0, 0}
#define COLOR_1 {255, 0, 0} // Red
#define COLOR_2 {255, 160, 25} // Orange
#define COLOR_3 {255, 255, 0} // Yellow
#define COLOR_4 {127, 255, 127} // Pink
#define COLOR_5 { 0, 255, 0} // Green
#define COLOR_6 { 0, 255, 255} // Cyan
#define COLOR_7 { 0, 127, 255} // Light blue
#define COLOR_8 { 0, 0, 255} // Blue
#define COLOR_9 {191, 0, 255} // light green
uint16_t RGB_565(uint8_t red, uint8_t green, uint8_t blue){
// 16-bit value to express the RGB565-color:
// |R|R|R|R|R|G|G|G|G|G|G|B|B|B|B|B|
uint16_t red_565 = red / 8;
uint16_t green_565 = green / 4;
uint16_t blue_565 = blue / 8;
uint16_t mixed_565 = (red_565 << 11) | (green_565 << 5) | blue_565;
return mixed_565;
}
void setup(){
// Convert the preset colors to a RGB565-value
const uint8_t tint_1[] = COLOR_1;
uint16_t color_1 = RGB_565(tint_1[0], tint_1[1], tint_1[2]);
const uint8_t tint_2[] = COLOR_2;
uint16_t color_2 = RGB_565(tint_2[0], tint_2[1], tint_2[2]);
const uint8_t tint_3[] = COLOR_3;
uint16_t color_3 = RGB_565(tint_3[0], tint_3[1], tint_3[2]);
const uint8_t tint_4[] = COLOR_4;
uint16_t color_4 = RGB_565(tint_4[0], tint_4[1], tint_4[2]);
// etc...
// This part should be able to be compressed
}
void loop(){
// Not relevant
}

What about
#define COLOR_1 255, 0, 0
Then simply call
RGB_565(COLOR_1);
